I read something particularly sad about the terrorist attack last week

One of the Israeli soldiers kiiled was an Christian Arab Israeli citizen.

Two others were Muslims, from a Bedouin tribe allied with Israeli.

In their mad attacks against the "Jewish" state, these Islamic terrorists actually killed Christians and Muslims. This underscores the fact that even if Israel obviuosly gives a priveleged status to Jews, the state of Israel is more multi-ethnic, multi-religious, and secular than most of its neighbors (and it has benefited from the influx of Ethiopian and Russian immigrants). Non-Jews living in Israel still have far more rights than non-Muslims living in Saudia Arabia, for instance.

The Palestinians have a sizable Christian minority, but have you ever noticed that all of the suicide bombers are Muslim?
